When we got back from Yuanyuan, it was already dark.

Sister E had already boiled hot water at home and heated up the food in the pot, waiting for them to come back.

"How is it? Is Yuanyuan doing well over there?" Sister E asked.

Yuanyuan used to be the most noisy child in the family. Ever since he left home and joined the table tennis team, there has been a lot less laughter in the house.

He only stayed at home for half a day during the New Year holiday, and the entire Lu family missed him so much.

Li Jinfeng smiled widely. "I'm having a good time! When we went there, I was eating in the cafeteria with my teammates. I had a chicken drumstick in my left hand and chopsticks in my right. My cheeks were bulging. I was so full that I ate several more buns."

The buns that Li Jinfeng bought were different from the ones she gave to the elders in Qiangouzi Village. They were small ones, not big ones. Otherwise, with Yuanyuan's appetite, it would be impossible for her to eat a few more after the meal.

"That's good!" Sister E breathed a sigh of relief. "I was just worried that he wouldn't be able to eat or sleep well out there."

It has been a year since Yuanyuan became a regular member of the team, but Sister E is still as worried about him every day as she was when he first arrived there.

"Don't worry, they eat well!" said Li Jinfeng.

Tuantuan and Meimei, who had eaten there before, also nodded repeatedly.

Tuantuan: "There's the meat that Yuanyuan likes to eat."

Meimei: "Second brother said that he can eat as much as he wants from the cafeteria, no limit!"

Sister E: "Then I won't worry!"

"Aunt Da'e, next time I'll take you to see where Yuanyuan trains and his cafeteria. You won't worry about him anymore. Instead, you'll think the food at our house isn't as good as the food there!"

The next time Li Jinfeng mentioned would be after the Asian Games in September.

Sister E said as she went to the kitchen to help serve the food and dishes, "You guys eat first, and then go to bed early after dinner!"

After the children finished their meal, Li Jinfeng arranged for each child to wash and sleep in their rooms.

Although she and Lu Jianguo had gone out, the Lantern Festival had not yet passed. According to everyone, it was still the Chinese New Year period.

Since there was nothing to do anyway, Li Jinfeng let Xiaode stay at her home for a few days. Until the day before the Lantern Festival, she did not let him go home. Instead, she asked Lu Jianguo to go to Chen Hongjun's home and invite Chen Hongjun and Old Man Chen to come over to celebrate the Lantern Festival at home.

The more people there are at home, the more things need to be prepared.

Fortunately, everyone can lend a hand.

Li Jinfeng made glutinous rice balls, and Aunt Chen helped her make red bean paste and black sesame paste fillings.

When it comes to making Yuanxiao, Sister E helps out. Just like in previous years, she prepares both Yuanxiao and Tangyuan.

It's a rare occasion for us to get together, happily eat delicious food and chat. This day is happy enough.

After the Lantern Festival, the children have to go back to school.

The same goes for Li Jinfeng.

She will graduate in June and will start working after graduation. Although we don’t know what kind of job she will do yet, we can still look forward to it.

In addition, He Xin is also graduating this year. According to her, by the time she graduates, there should be news from Ermao.

If they were to get married right away, Li Jinfeng would either have to go to the northwest or return to the southern province.

Come to think of it, she has quite a lot on her plate this year.

…

Time passed quickly, and it was April in a blink of an eye. Finally, there was news from Yang Ermao that his marriage report had been approved.

As soon as He Xinyi graduates, the two can get married.
